You forgot to consider the page margins, and the padding of each cell (and
possibly other settings).

I have not analyzed each detail of attachment 207952. There might be other
reasons.

The only relevant test that I performed on attachment 207952 was to enable /
disable "shrink-to-fit" on all the cells with different font sizes.
Additionally, when the sum of the widths of columns A and B was less than 4.84"
(approx. 123mm), then only one page was needed; and when the sum of those
widths was larger than that (again, approx. 123mm) then 2 pages were needed.
Making column A narrower and expanding column B was easier in order to check
this threshold.

That's for attachment 207952; I have different settings (e.g. margins) in my
own default template, so the threshold was different than 4.84".

The point of the basic tests I performed on attachment 207952 was to consider
whether the "shrink-to-fit" setting on the cells was actually the key cause of
the existence / need of the second page, as you report in comment 0. At this
point, I cannot say that the "shrink-to-fit" feature is the source of the
problem.

Perhaps someone else might have a different approach. In the meantime, you
might want to open a topic at <https://ask.libreoffice.org> to ask for
assistance in finding what exactly triggers the second page and what settings
you could potentially modify in order to change the current threshold in
attachment 207952.

Whichever the case, whether there is really a bug somewhere or not, please
report back.
